Treatment of the cause where possible. 2. Blood transfusion The ideal haemoglobin level for optimal oxygen carriage and viscosity remains contentious. A recent multicentre trial showed improved outcomes if a trigger of 7 g dl was used. A higher transfusion threshold . 9-10 g dl may be needed in those with cardiorespiratory disease. Transfusion is usually given as packed cells with or without a small dose of furosemide to maintain fluid balance. This may need to be given rapidly during active blood loss or slowly for correction of a gradually falling haemoglobin level. Rarely patients admitted with a chronically low haemoglobin . 4-5 g dl which often follows long term malnutrition or vitamin deficiency will need a much slower elevation in haemoglobin level to avoid precipitating acute heart failure. An initial target of 7-8 g dl is often acceptable. Obviously this may need to be altered in the light of any concurrent acute illness where elevation of oxygen delivery is deemed necessa ry. Erythropoeitin reduces the need for blood transfusion in long-term ICU patients and may be useful in those with multiple antibodies or declining transfusion for religious reasons.
